Augury Brings in Google Cloud Veteran to Build Its Next Act
Anoop Mohan will lead product and engineering as the company moves into agentic AI
Augury, the Industrial AI company whose sensors and software help manufacturers prevent machine failures and optimize production, has appointed Anoop Mohan as its new Chief Product and Technology Officer.
Mohan joins from Google Cloud, where he led product for agentic AI solutions within the Applied AI group, a background that maps directly onto where Augury is headed next: from a company that predicts machine problems to one that autonomously acts on them.
Prediction Isn't Enough Anymore
Augury says it has accumulated what it calls "the malfunction dictionary," the largest dataset of mechanical signals in the industry, covering more than 1 billion machine hours monitored according to the company. Customers including PepsiCo, DuPont, and Colgate-Palmolive operate across more than 40 countries on the platform.
Mohan will unify Augury's Product Management, Engineering, UX, Operations, and AI Incubation teams, with a charge to move into agentic AI, building systems that actively coordinate industrial workflows rather than simply flagging issues.
As he put it: "We are moving beyond simply identifying issues to actively orchestrating industrial workflows with Industrial AI, removing the manual coordination and friction that traditionally slows industrial operations down."
He arrives with 25 years of experience across AI, IoT, and industrial platforms, including executive roles at Samsung, Comcast, Cisco, and Rockwell Automation.
Supporting him is a newly assembled senior team: Gilad Bornstein (VP of R&D, formerly Meta and Qualcomm), Itamar Cohen (Director of Platform Management, formerly Blizzard and Amazon), Brian Crum (Senior Director of Product Management, formerly Amazon and Microsoft), and Sagar Patel (Senior Director of Product Operations, formerly DoorDash and Traba).
The appointment completes a broader leadership overhaul underway since late 2025. Augury named Elan Greenberg as CEO, Brian Germain as CRO, and Ori Franco as CFO, with co-founder Saar Yoskovitz stepping into an Executive Chairman role.
Those moves followed a $75 million Series F and recognition as a Leader in the Verdantix Green Quadrant for Industrial AI Analytics Software.
The company has grown revenue fivefold since 2021 and is approaching $100 million ARR, with an IPO on the horizon.
